I agree, but America was founded on, and puts out there that we accept everyone, and everyone is welcome. In reality, I find America much like a southern Baptist church. Everyone is welcome, but when someone who isn't like everyone else shows up, people start whispering and pointing. A smile to your face and a knife in your back.
It was fairly apparent that I was not born in the US, I have non-US name, and I never pretended to be from the US. I did, however, live my life just like any other American. There was never even a hint of discrimination. http://img.wondercostumes.com/imgzoo...back%20311x404 |

Mods love flexing their authoritarian muscle over this thread. So long as people are posting pictures, what does it matter what topics are being discussed in the margins. What is this, North Korea? You guys need to lighten up. Go have a drink, calm yourselves. All will be okay. :love: |
Here is a picture of a goat:

because there's a section for it, and it doesn't belong here.

So, I don't normally re-post videos from C-SPAN, but this one I just love. I've been a fan of Cliff Stoll for a couple of decades now, but (rather oddly, in retrospect) I don't believe I've ever actually heard his voice or seen him speak- I've only read his books, articles, etc.
Turns out, the guy is even nuttier than I envisioned: |

There's a collection of pedestrian-specific videos that seemed to show a lot of attempted insurance fraud and/or suicides where people basically step in the path of moving vehicles. I know that happens to some degree in the USA, but how shitty must your prospects for life be when that seems like the most viable way to make some money? https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1380569034 mod edit: HORSED Attachment 239488 Damnit!
